Here's what is happening this next week: Just an FYI:  The testing window of NWEA and M-Step has slowed some lessons down over the last couple of weeks. Testing does interrupt our schedule. This is why some things on the agenda below have been there for a bit. I just wanted to clarify:) Thanks for your understanding!

Reading: Students will finish the year in a Book Club. Each student has been given a chapter book to dig deeper into a conversation using key details, vocabulary, special passages with figurative language, and writing summaries.

Writing: Students will be working on writing poetry. We will be working on writing Haiku and Parts of Speech poetry. At Author's Chair, students will continue presenting their Powtoons and poetry when finished.

Math: I posted in GC review videos for essential standards. These should help with any extra practice in school and at home. At WINN time I will reteach and review for those students who need it as well as extend learning for students using the essential standards. Please continue to encourage your child to practice multiplication/division facts at home with flashcards, IXL, etc. for extra practice. Students can continue to practice IXL Diagnostic and now Khan Mappers for extra yards.

Science: This week we will be exploring, "Where does energy come from?"

Social Studies: Student's essays are finished! They are working hard on the Powtoon presentation. We are finishing our SS units with developing a deeper understanding of the three branches of the city, state, and federal government

Positivity Project: This week's focus: Curiosity



Every Monday is Positivity Day: Students wear P2 T-Shirt


Late Starts: 5/19, 5/26

No School: 5/31

  Hello Lincoln Families, Testing for NWEA will begin Monday, April 26th in the morning. We will be testing students in reading and math.  It may take a few days to finish as a class. This week we will discuss fall and winter data and grade-level goals. Once students are finished with the NWEA, we will gather the data and adjust individual learning goals and use them along with essential standard data/goals to finish out the 4th-grade year. This is a very crucial time of year. This last trimester is going fast! There is much work that needs to be done in order to finalize 4th-grade goals to get students prepared for 5th grade. Please try your best to have your child in school. If you can schedule doctor appointments after 3:15, it would be most beneficial to your child. I don't want anyone to lose valuable lesson time. It's just not possible to "catch" students up with the Covid protocols and our schedule. Thank you for your understanding. Just an F.Y.I: M-Step testi...

  Hello Families,      We are wrapping up the Trimester this week. Report cards will go home next week. It was exciting getting the Chromebooks last week and it will be much easier to push out assignments through Google Classroom now. Last week we worked diligently on more technology training with the new Chromebooks.  We reviewed how to take care of the devices, Digital Citizenship, how to comprise an email, and Google Classroom. If you have time and have any questions please review the  SJPS Digital Passport  (click link). This is also in Google Classroom in the topic Technology Support for students as well. We also signed up for Khan Mappers which allows math practice on 4th grade standards based off of their NWEA math score. I also went over some more programs we will use on a regular basis for face-to-face or remote learning. As you may know, I sent home with students on Thursday all school books and supplies if they need them in case we go remote...
